Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Huang Xueyang Comes Calling
As the two of them came downstairs and out of the dormitory building, they saw Ling Er. Qin Sitong subconsciously glanced at Yun Zijin.
Yun Zijin didn’t seem to react. As long as the bodyguards didn’t interfere with her daily life, she had no intention of giving up their protection.
She only had one bodyguard follow her at a time because she didn’t want to stand out too much on campus.
As for which one followed her, that was up to their own internal arrangements.
Qin Sitong had bought a bicycle on campus, and with Yun Zijin riding on the back seat, they headed to Cafeteria No. 1 together.
However, Qin Sitong’s expression froze in astonishment when she saw Ling Er already at the cafeteria entrance before them.
"He..."
’Even if he’s a fast runner, there’s no way he’s faster than a bike, right?’
"Don’t ask. I wouldn’t know."
Yun Zijin herself had never asked. All that mattered was that her bodyguards wouldn’t harm her; the rest was unimportant.
Hearing Yun Zijin say that, Qin Sitong tactfully dropped the subject.
"Ooh, the cafeteria has soup dumplings today!" Qin Sitong immediately spotted them behind the service window.
Because they were so delicious, whenever Cafeteria No. 1 served soup dumplings, demand always outstripped supply.
But for whatever reason, the cafeteria chefs didn’t make them every day, so getting them was always a matter of luck.
Qin Sitong bought a steamer basket without hesitation. Yun Zijin bought one for herself and also got a serving for Ling Er.
Zero One had mentioned the breakfast situation during the shift change, so Ling Er was quick to accept.
Anything the young miss gave them was considered a reward for their diligent, round-the-clock protection, so they accepted it without any qualms.
Since they had no morning classes, Yun Zijin and Qin Sitong ate at a leisurely pace, a stark contrast to the students around them who were rushing to finish and get to their 8 a.m. lectures.
At eight o’clock, the voice of Randomly Spend echoed in Yun Zijin’s mind, announcing a new mission.
[Spending Mission: Please spend ¥5,000,000.00 before midnight tonight. Mission Reward: To be unlocked.]
’Five million. This has to be the largest spending mission Randomly Spend has ever given me, right?’
Fortunately, there were no specific spending requirements. If she couldn’t spend it all by the end of the day, she’d just have Mei Lin transfer the remainder to her charity foundation.
"Yun Zijin!"
Yun Zijin had just finished her last soup dumpling when she heard someone call her name in a menacing tone.
However, before the person could even reach Yun Zijin, he was intercepted and restrained by Ling Er.
Yun Zijin turned to see a black-and-blue Huang Xueyang.
If his face had been any more swollen, Yun Zijin doubted she would have even recognized him.
"Is there something you need, Mr. Huang?" fгeewebnovёl.com
Yun Zijin spoke without telling Ling Er to release him.
Ling Er sensed Huang Xueyang’s malice toward Yun Zijin and had no intention of letting him go without a direct order.
The few other people scattered around the cafeteria now had their eyes fixed on the commotion.
"Yun Zijin, was it you who told... What did you send them!"
He had been confident that even if Yun Zijin exposed him, he could smooth things over. He never expected that no matter how he tried to placate them, those bitches wouldn’t believe a word he said!
They even hired someone to throw a sack over his head and beat him up, leaving him with no evidence to press charges for assault.
"I only told them the truth. What they decided to do after that has nothing to do with me.
"Mr. Huang, instead of confronting me here, you’d be better off trying to get the university to go easy on you."
This incident was already all over campus. If the university didn’t take a public stance, its credibility among the student body would suffer.
"You!"
Hearing Yun Zijin’s words, Huang Xueyang finally remembered that with the news spreading so far, the university must already be aware of the situation.
There had been no word for a while, so he had no idea what the consequences would be.
Yun Zijin’s words, however, served as a reminder. He couldn’t just sit back and wait for disaster to strike. He had to find his academic advisor, the head of his department!
He had to prioritize. Huang Xueyang’s mind was now set on finding his advisor and the department head. Whether it took gifts or bribes, he absolutely could not let this incident tarnish his record upon graduation!
"Tell him to let me go!"
Restrained by Ling Er, he was completely unable to move, even though he wanted to leave.
Yun Zijin gave Ling Er a look. "Let him go."
Ling Er released Huang Xueyang as instructed. The man shot Yun Zijin a deep, menacing look, but with Ling Er present, he ultimately didn’t dare to do anything.
Watching Huang Xueyang’s retreating figure, Qin Sitong glanced worriedly at Yun Zijin.
"Are you sure it’s okay to just let him go? What if he tries to do something to you?"
’That Huang Xueyang is clearly bad news. What a waste of a handsome face.’
’Then again, if it weren’t for his good looks, he probably couldn’t have conned so many girls into spending money on him.’
"Don’t worry. He can’t cause any real trouble."
Huang Xueyang was just a guy who lived by conning women. His family background couldn’t be anything special. Yun Zijin didn’t believe for a second that he could produce anything that would force the university’s hand.
The fact that the other girls didn’t go to the police was a gesture to save the university’s face. If the school still failed to take serious action, this matter would definitely not be settled privately.
"Okay, then. I’ll be waiting to see what happens."
Qin Sitong was utterly disgusted by Huang Xueyang’s behavior—not just cheating on them, but conning them out of their money too.
After finishing their meal, the two of them, having no classes and no desire to return to their dorm, decided to go to the university library to study.
Now that their senior year had begun, it wouldn’t be long before they had to start on their graduation theses. Spending more time in the library reading would help them build up a knowledge base in advance.
However, before they even reached the library, Yun Zijin’s phone rang.
Yun Zijin took out her phone and was a little surprised to see the caller ID: "Lu Yunque."
’The orphanage is using the Lu Family’s blueprints and construction team, but we shouldn’t have any reason to work together after this, right?’
Though she couldn’t figure out why Lu Yunque was calling her now, Yun Zijin quickly answered.
"Hello, M-Lu... Lu Yunque?"
She had instinctively started to say "Mr. Lu," but then she remembered their previous conversation about what to call each other and quickly switched to his full name.
"It’s me. Good morning! Have you eaten yet?"
Lu Yunque spoke as naturally as if he were greeting an old friend, without a hint of awkwardness.
It made Yun Zijin, in contrast, feel a little flustered.
"I just finished. I was about to head to the library... Is there a reason for the sudden call?"
Yun Zijin didn’t like to let questions linger, so if she couldn’t figure something out, she asked directly.
"I happened to have some business at Dijing University today, and I remembered you’re a student here, so I thought I’d invite you to a meal.
"If you’re busy, we can always do it another time."
"You... have business at Dijing University? I thought the Lu Family was mainly in the hotel and shopping mall business?"
"Did I never tell you? I did my undergrad at Dijing University, too. So, I guess that makes me your upperclassman."
"You... definitely never mentioned that. But what does that have to do with you being at Dijing University today?"
